Up against Man City in the FFS that was offside FA Cup. I prepare to stand corrected but I think Charlie is still our player but as I take as much interest in modern football players contracts and transfers as I do in mobile phone contracts I could be wrong. Either way seems like a good lad and having a decent season with a club I like so up the O’s!
Up against a central defender today in Ruben Dias who’s worth approx £75 mil … would love to see Charlie meg him. [Post edited 8 Feb 12:07]

I don't know about 30, but for a player whose goals scored have all come wearing other teams' shirts, a 17 page thread - and counting - is good going!
Although we're nearing the end of the season, he's in with a real shout of reaching 20 pagers; which would be phenomenal going for a player out on loan.
Indeed, and with no disrespect intended toward those who actually played for the Rangers this season, Charles must be in with a shout of our POTY. |
Probably as much to do with the dearth of available strikers this season as Charlie's exploits. |  | | |

Let's just finish this nonsense here
He will be at Rangers next season. The end.
If he isn't, even for QPR, that's up in the top three of stark raving bonkers decisions
Anyone who doesn't want him here next season or doesn't think he will be, I would suggest a long lie down in a darkened room
Charlie Kelman QPR squad member 2025 /2026 - might even update Wikipedia- it's 100% certain. [Post edited 13 Apr 11:20]

Conventional wisdom says so but I'd throw in a couple of caveats:
- Does he fit into the manager's preferred style and formation?
- Charlie's current contract runs to 2026. Is he prepared to sign another extension?
The second question is key as having been farmed out on loan the last 4 years, Charlie may feel his future lies elsewhere (particularly if Leyton Orient get promoted). If he doesn't extend his contract this summer then QPR would be wise to cash in whilst his stock is high. | | | |

What’s the going rate for a 25 goal
Striker in league one ?
2.5 million. So QPR that . Our two biggest assets don’t even play for us . |
Kone was going for like £7 m before Wycombe pulled the plug?
Really depends on the length of his contract
If he goes for 200-300k means we know he would soon be gone for free. If the club seeks 2-3 m then perhaps a year left with another year option? (Fat hope - we know we are not allowed nice things / if we are Bristol city he would be gone for at least 5 m to another champ club)
In any case, he should really be given a real chance, not 10 consecutive 10-minutes bite-part sub games.
Perhaps he wanted to stay? Maybe that’s why he signed an extension? And the plan was to be loaned out to prove his worth in a league below with consistent first team games, not unlike chair, Eze, Dieng loans, maybe? [Post edited 13 Apr 12:57]

The question is does Charlie want or need to stay at Rangers, he must be a bit pissed off that Rangers dont seem to rate him. [Post edited 14 Apr 21:54]

Nothing is ever 100% certain at QPR. Even for a striker with four goals in a week and eight in his last six games.
David McIntyre has said in each of the last two West London Sport podcasts that he suspects Kelman will be sold.
DM doesn't get much wrong. But given our lack of senior strikers and Kelman's hot form it would be very strange if we didn't at least take a look at him next season to see what he can do. |
If that does happen, it needs to be for a very inflated fee and also before he is sold, we need to know exactly who we are going to sign in his place and it needs a pre signing contract for us to secure that player or players.
WLS are never the most happy of people so predictions are fuzzy but when information is known, they are usually the most accurate
I think if we did sell, it could be a total dumb ass decision though !! [Post edited 14 Apr 21:59]

It’s OK, rising strikers, in form, are 10 a penny and can be bought for peanuts - especially when their on good form (even if it’s in a lower league or foreign league).
And he would have to drop his goal scoring tally by 65% to be our top scorer for the season too. |  | | |

We should offer him a new contract. If he signs it will increase his value and give us a chance to have a look and make a decision in time for the January window.
If he won't sign we should look for the highest offer this summer and then decide to stick, knowing he will eventually leave for nothing, or sell. | | | |

He's never really done anything to make us rate him, until this season. | | | |

26 games for QPR 0 goals across 3 seasons
It has been covered here his total minutes add up to about 4 games
Ok, let me check - so for QPR:
Season 2020/21 - 11 games 0 goals, 1 start, 146 minutes played
Season 2021/22 - 1 game 0 goal, 0 start, 5 minutes
Season 2023/24 - 11 games 0 goals, 3 starts, 241 minutes
3 seasons - 26 games 0 goals 0 assist, 4 starts, 392 minutes played
Which worked out Kelman played about 4.3 full games in his 26 appearances for the club.
So, what chance had he got to really prove his worth for QPR?

He's had one good season. Before that us, Wigan and Orient fans had sh*t emojis everywhere. Not worth the risk. sell him. |  | | |

At last! A sensible post that clearly show/proves that he's not had sufficient time to prove himself. Especially at such a young age.
Fans making out hes literally had a whole half a season of football with us and failed to score really grips my sh!t!
I don't get why fans are so dead against giving a chance to a player that is already ours and has banged in 20 goals in just the division below us?! Like we've got other options lined up from Champ or Prem with our "War Chest" !!!

His contract was extended. Before the loan to Orient. For how long, we don't know. |  |

I was at Crawley-Layton Orient the other day as a friend has just moved to Crawley and got to see Kelman in person.
I was impressed. The game was pretty low on quality but he held up the ball well and was running onto balls in-behind well too. He got two but I think his wider link up play was more impressive. He missed one fairly easy chance but looked dangerous.
As I said before, the standard was pretty low in my opinion but I think he definitely had something about him | | | |

If we accept that other players in the past have had to go out on loan to improve ( and we can include Smyth and Chair in that) then it seems a no brainer to give Kelman a try out. If we accept that players playing well in the past, in the division below us, have caught our eye and encouraged us to spend decent money on them (Dickie), then it seems a no brainer to give Kelman a try out. If we accept that some players develop later than others, then it seems a no brainer to give Kelman a try out. If we are hoping that Larkeche will solve our LB problems (on loan in Scotland) then it seems a no-brainer to give Kelman a try out. If we bitch and moan about improving Ronnie Edwards for Southampton next year, then it seems like a no-brainer to give Kelman a try out. When your four main strikers have a dozen league goals BETWEEN them , it seems like a no brainer to give Kelman a try out | | | |

I'm no sports scientist but I do think it's often dangerous and counter productive to force physical development of youngsters.
People always cite Michael Owen and his exploding hamstrings in his latter years.
I hope Kelman returns and rips it up.... double figures would be the stuff of dreams and make him the newly crowned King of W12 looking at recent years returns from strikers.
However, sometimes it just doesn't work for certain players at certain clubs.
We'll see........ |
